Need help

Ok, I was wondering how I could make it so that AutoIt 3.0 will detect if an error happens when running a game. I'm trying to make it so that if the bot is trying to login, and it receives an error, the bot will stop.

Is this possible?

If the login error box appears in the same position every time and the OK/CANCEL button(s) are a different colour than the background, I'd use PixelSearch to search for the button. Providing that no other dialogue boxes appear there. You'd also have to use PixelSearch to test for a correct login sequence.

The other option is to build an OCR.

Would Pixelsearch check for the "text information" that the error box pops up?

No, Pixelsearch is only for colour detection. You could use pixelsearch to create an OCR (optical character reader) to read the text, but it is a very daunting task.

So, do you have any other good ideas I can use to read the "error" from the game?

Not really, if the Window Spy can't see the text, then there's really no way to get it. You could try a ControlGetText on the field, but ... I really don't think that will work. It's worth a try though.
